through grooved or cut away portions 28 ex from the top, the lower outer edge $8 entending upwardly of the securing point 29. tering notches 37 which perm t such tilt ng. V The Window thus far described operates in The sash ropes 25 pass about pulleys 53 and lVhile have shown but one sash adapted for ti? Bill}. moren'ient for cleaning purposes and the like. it will "n that similar movement may vidod for in the upper sash by i substuntially similar t those sioun.

It should be noted that whilst I have dsclosed a tie or cross bar 39 and hooks d0 in conjunction with the tset wins 36 and plates for securing the window sash to the molding strip, e ther one or the other may be elimin ted WlillOlt lestroying the eii'icient operation of my device.

It should also be noted tht during rain 5 weather the lower sash a shown in dotted lines in 1 ventilation in the room and the same tim prevent any rain or the like from entering.

What I claim is:

1. In a window structure the combination of opposed side members llRVlllf opposed grooves formed therein, each of the grooves being provided with a forward wall pivotally mounted at its one end, a tie rod spaceably securing the walls together at their free ends, a sash reciprocable in the grooves, and means carried by the sash cooperating with the tie rod to lock the sash and forward walls niemoers carried by the sash co-operating with the tie rod to secure the sash to the side walls having opposed grooves formed awindow sas reciprocable through oo 5, forward walls of the grooves pivoted at their lower ends, a tie rod g its opposite ends secured to the forward walls of the grooves to retain the said forward walls in spaced relation,and means carried by the sash co-operating with the rod for securing the sash to the rod whereby the tie rod and forward walls of the grooves may move as a unit about the pivot l mounting of the forward walls.

in testimony whereof, I have hereunto subscribed my name this 24 day of July, 1926.
